Unfortunately many Olympic atheletes have been training from an early age "encouraged" by their parents. They have grown up sometimes with extreme pressures to win and will do so at almost any cost; even cheating.
I am by no means saying it's OK to do this, but as long as our society puts so much "value" on superstar atheletes, there will be cheaters...
Let the debate begin!!!
No, not trying to incite anything, just maybe re-stating the obvious...
EDIT!! Many congrats to Beckie Scott and honors to her for wining in the
true Olympic spirit.....
